Not to be a perv but it's just not on the level of the WWW until it unlocks a novel way to deliver porn.

I get very tired of comparing every thing OpenAI does or says to all of these historic tech moments as if they’re remotely comparable

- Sam Altman gets fired, Steve Jobs moment

- Custom GPTs, App Store moment

- Says “hardware”, iPhone moment

- Apps SDK, browser moment

To me it comes across as forcing the idea that there is progress, and it cheapens these historical events when OpenAI inevitably drops the ball.

If it’s that revolutionary, the tech should stand on its own two feet. I don’t think browsers needed to compare themselves to “the terminal moment” — they were just useful and did their own thing. The original LLM boom wasn’t an “amazon moment,” it was just people using the product a bunch

These "historic advancement" announcements make more sense when the target audience are firms such as Forrester[0] and Gartner[1], instead of those who would be charged with using them.
